§ 367. Individuals, associations, and partnerships prohibited from doing insurance business
Except as herein provided, the doing of any insurance business in this Commonwealth, as prescribed in this act, for insurance companies, by any private individual, association, or partnership, is prohibited. Any person who solicits or obtains, within this Commonwealth, applications for insurance by any such private individual, association, or partnership, contrary to the provisions of this act, shall be liable to a penalty of one hundred dollars ($100.00), for the use of the Commonwealth, for every application obtained, to be sued for and recovered by the Attorney General or district attorney of the proper county, either by action of debt or criminal prosecution. Any person who has paid to any agent of such unauthorized individual, association, or partnership any premium moneys for insurance granted or to be granted shall be entitled to recover the same by an action at law from such agent or from the person, association, or partnership for which he acted. This section does not prohibit the doing of insurance business by associations known as Lloyds, nor the exchange of inter-insurance or reciprocal contracts of insurance authorized by this act, nor shall the same prevent any one from becoming and being accepted as personal surety or guarantor.
